Members of Sorosis.

Mrs. Louise Thomas, the present president
Of Soross, is a fine looking woman, with
superb mass of hair, still unthreaded with
gray. that she winds in dark coils about her
head. In her youth her hair was SO long
far below her knees-and so thick that she
was inclined to look upon it as an inflictlon
rather than as an adornment, and an hour
every morning had to be given up to the
labor of combing and braiding it. She has
read through two series of histories while en-
gagged in this task She sits in an ARMIES
chair with book spread open in her lap,
and while she is untangling the mass with
comb she does an hours solid reading.
Lille Devereux Blake is looking old and
broken; her hair is getting quite white about
the temples, and much of her alerrness and
energy is becoming subdued. She speaks
with a slight lisp, but has a very sweet and
gentle voice. Her eyes are gray and her
complexion clear and pale, and she looks as If
she had dressed in wild hurry and hadn't
had time all day to go back and straightea
things out. She has pretty young daugh-
ter, who is beginning to be heard In suffrage
councils and who is to be seen at all meetings
where the interests of women are at stake.
She. unlike her mother, is very fond Of dress,
and is always quite deliberately and expen-
sively arrayed. Both Isabella Beecher Hooker
and Jennie June Croly-who has lately be-
come editor of Godey's Lady's Book-are
quiet, old fashioned looking women, who
might easily pose for sweet tempered and in
dulgent grandmothers. Isabella Hooker
wears her hair in white curls about her face
and carries little ancient reticule on her
arm Mary Seymour Howell, who engineered
the woman suffrage bill through the assem-
bly, last winter. is slim and quiet and speaks
very well Elizabeth Cady Stanton is COM
ing back here soon from England. She is
still very handsome, and was in her younger
DAYS beauty Her sons inherit it from her
fine striking looking young fellows whom
one sees in the street any day.-New York

The Boy as an Escort.

It is a good plan for mother and sister to
depend, as it were, on the boy as an escort.
Let him help her in and out of the car. Let
him have his little purse and pay her fare.
Let Kim carry some of the bundles. He will
be delighted to do these things, and feel proud
that she can depend on him. A boy likes to
be thought manly, and in no better way can
he show his manliness than by taking his
fathers place as escort Of mother or sister.
Teach him to lift his hat when meeting a
woman with whom he or his family are ac-
quainted without regard to race, color or po-
sition, for true gentleman will lift his hat
as readily to the woman at the fruit stand
with whom he has speaking acquaintance
as be will to the highest in the land. He
cares not for her position, it is enough for
him that she is woman Teach him also to
lift his hat when passing a gentleman ac-
quaintance with whom there is a lady, al
though the latter be a stranger to him.
All parents and members of the family are
proud of courteous boy, and there is no
reason why any boy cannot become one if
proper attention. paid to his training. Ifhis
mind is turned into this channel when young,
there will be great deal he will learn of his
own accord by observation.-BostonB Budget.

Remedy for Ivy Poisoning.

give me great annoyance, unless it is imme-

by saturating slice of loaf bread with
water, then cover one surface with soda, and
apply to the eruption, the soda next the flesh.

washing or bathing with soda water, even
continuously, will not suffice with me. My
skin requires the heat and moisture of the
bread in order for the soda to act ON and

The Love of School Girls.

In the greet city the tender and unsullied
love of school girls for each other degenerates
before they have met q second time after
graduation. The years glide by, and now
and again they meet, like ships that cross
each other at sea- There is moments recog-

Of the heart as each traces the remorseless
years in the others fast aging face; little
reddening of the eyes, little spasm Of pain,
to be reminded that what was love is now in

the dear heart of girlhood is the object; ons
passionate regret for the sweet summer Of
life that can never repeat itself, and then
then the curtain Of the past is drawn.-Signor

Very few women distinguished in literature
have found fame and fortune early in life.

Home for Working Women.

A lady describes home in a New England
manufacturing town which has interested us
very much. Eight young women, all workers
in straw, hired a house in common, placed in
it a widowed sister of one of them as house
keeper, furnished it as best they could and
set up family life, all sharing the expense
equally. The experiment has proved very
successful Occasionally they give a modest
party, and the house is recognized in the town
as part of its social attractions. There is
something very pleasant about this departure
from the regulation boarding house. Its sue
cess would demand rare qualities of mind and
heart in the inmates-a union of good temper
and good principle not always found in eight
individuals of the same household New

The Muscles of Baby Ewes.

The two muscles-a set for each eye-act in
perfect correlation and enable the organ in
an instant of time to cover an infinite range
of vision. No fine adjustment of the tele-
scope, no system of lenses and prisms, can
accomplish this feat in an instant of time
The utmost caution is therefore imperatively
